After giving this some consideration, I would like to see the following changes by our next presidential election.
Alaska & Hawaii election deadline would be 7PM local on the first Monday in November. By doing this, their results “should” be known before the first ballot was cast in the lower 48 on the First Tuesday morning in November. On the first Tuesday in November: East coast voting stops at 5PM CentralST voting stops at 4PM MountainST voting stops at 3PM PacificST voting stops at 2PM With the above scenario, all lower 48 voting stops at the same time. Networks or tweets wouldn’t have the opportunity to “call a state” while other voters were standing in line. YES - citizens in California would have three less hours to vote than citizens in New York, but that’s a small concession for all voting being done at the same time. Curious if any of you see an issue with my proposal? |

How about the media just go to bed early that day and start fresh Wednesday. Why should California have 3 less hours to vote with their population size?
How about people just not put so much stock in "early predictions" based on incomplete results?

Normally I would agree. But are these normal times? They sho ain't. Which brings me to Paul Krugman's opinion piece in his NYT newsletter, dated November 3. Read on, young Padawan: Quote:

This is ridiculous. The ability and time frame to vote should be the same across the board. It's not like the President will begin the following week, why rush this process? |

Trump just said "he will win easily, with a lot of litigation" .
He's a very bad loser, that's all. Judging from the live tweets of the press conference on Foxnews, read between the lines, even they don't follow him anymore CNN calls him pathetic and a whole lot more. even Rick Santorum, former Republican candidate, agrees. Erie County in North West Pennsylvania and Allentown county in south east have just flipped from red to blue. La-ah-ah, la-la-la-la-la
Ah-ah-ah, la-la-la-la-la I predict a riot, I predict a riot I predict a riot, I predict a riot Sad but true, but stupid armed Trumpists will be attacking the polling stations

Reminds me of one of the final scenes in Batman Returns, when the Penguin's minions desert him one by one. BUT! The people and the facts-based media must NOT let their guard down - psycho judges all the way up to the Handmaid can still intervene...

No they don't, the votes are being counted. The "problem" is that the process is different in the various states: In e.g. Florida and Ohio the mail-in ballots were counted first, so there Biden was leading first, and then Trump gained in as the physical votes were counted. In Pennsylvania and Georgia the physical votes were counted first which Trump won. Now the mail-in ballots are still counted, which Biden is winning. It would have been more transparent if the process was the same in all states. It's Trumps own fault, he told his followers not to vote by mail.

What CNN correctly claimed is that when Trump is no longer President he can be sued his ass off, over a whole lot of different cases such as the Mueller Report. So that is a very good reason for Trump to desperately cling on to his seat

So Trump's lost Rick Santorum, fox news, AND fox news, but not Bytor. Least he's got his desperate supporters to the death.

this. we're experiencing an election during a pandemic. this process is going to take a little longer than usual. and probably even more so considering how close this race is. 2000 election wasn't actually officially decided till like the following month? so like....everyone just needs to shut up and let these people count the damn votes. EDIT: and trump can't hold an L, he's already suing states? I'd be mad ashamed if I looked up to a giant douche like him. he can literally have/be anything he wants, but never once decides to have some dignity or class. |

Look at it this way: Who is claiming that the elections are rigged? Trump, his family and his followers Who is claiming that the elections are not rigged? Every body else, all over this planet (except for the Slovakian PM) Even several Republicans tell him to "stop spreading debunked information". That link comes from Foxnews. (My browser is flawy and not allowing me to select more than one word, otherwise I would have copy pasted the entire article here) Edit: Speaking about Russians: From NBC The Russians have no need to spread misinformation. Trump and his allies are doing it for them
